  <dc:title>Letter from O J L [Oliver Joseph Lodge], Mariemont, Edgbaston, to [Joseph] Larmor</dc:title>
  <dc:description>He thanks Larmor for the information in his letter, which he has copied and sent to Mr. {Arthur James] Balfour, with notes and comments. On a theoretical upper limit to heat, [John Henry] Poynting has suggested that if sufficiently hot, atoms would 'fly to pieces' and there would be no more material generation of radiation. He agrees with all of Larmor's letter, and his point about common temparture radiation overpowering specific radiation at high temperatures is new to Lodge. In a postscript, he asks if Larmor agrees with an argument Lodge made on radiation and a law of inverse square.  </dc:description>
